- This multi-step process takes up to 24 hours from review submission to publication.
- Doctors can't pay to have reviews removed or hidden.
- Reviews are only removed at the reviewer's request or if they violate our Terms of Service.

10 weeks Post Op Update
Well as of today I went through my closet and am able to get back into my pre-op clothes. LOL somehow I thought I would be smaller... but I am really not. I didn't have a whole lot of volume removed in the broad scheme of things. My stomach flattened out pretty well as a flap of skin. I think once I get the butt skin removed I will be down a size. I have also gained about 5 pounds in the process. I was on a pretty hard core exercise regimen before surgery. I was told not to exercise until my necrotic area healed - which it finally has!! I need to get it in gear and get back to the gym.
I am graduating from my binder. I no longer wear it at night. I still wear it during the day a lot. I still have swelling.
The weakness in my left arm is 98% better I would say.. praise the lord. I was scared. I have to hold in some pretty weird positions to notice any difference compared to the right one.
I posted some photos below. I have been using NewGel strips on my vertical scar and the silicone cream on my arm scars. I ran out and bought some ScarFade which the facial plastic surgeon I work with recommended. We will see how it goes. I am going to have IPL laser treatments on my arm in a few weeks.

2 Months Post Op
I am two months post op today. I have posted some photos of the progress. The area of necrosis at my belly button is improving. It still isn't healed fully, but it is on the right track. My right arm scar is worse than my left. I guess it is because I use it more. The weakness in my left arm is almost 100% better than God. My nipples are pretty sensitive - which I guess is better than no feeling. I am still wearing my binder every day. I have too much abdominal swelling to just wear spanks. Hopefully it will get better soon. I did not anticipate being in a binder this long.
6 Weeks Post Op
Nothing terribly new - officially 6 weeks out so I wanted to update my pictures.
